My Thoughts on Parshat Matot-Masei
This week’s double parsha is as relevant as ever – from recounting our journey to the boundaries of the land (and ability to successfully challenge them), to our obligations towards our brothers and sisters (not to conflate with neighbours or allies or people that are neither), to war and much more. However, the idea of…… Continue reading My Thoughts on Parshat Matot-Masei

Learn to Live with Reality
My thoughts after watching Matt Walsh discussing yet another author giving in to a woke mob. Are we moving towards book burning? What would it take for Me to participate in it? What would it take for You to participate in it? What’s better – burning, censorship or confronting reality? This story is beyond ridiculous,…… Continue reading Learn to Live with Reality
If You Wish it, it’s Not a Dream
“Somewhere over the rainbow” is a beautiful sweet song. For anyone who grew up on the story of Wizard of Oz, the song itself and an amazingly clever storyline shaped our views. Somehow innocent story keeps growing with us. But did you know that the song itself, although written for the movie, was inspired by…… Continue reading If You Wish it, it’s Not a Dream
Whitewashing the History is a Path to Self Destruction
Whitewashing the history is a path to self destruction. We see it time and time again, yet persist to follow it. Our everyday lives see rise of socialism. A few intellectual will pick and choose information within very narrow timeline and we are back to nodding our heads. Confronting them is futile as discussions are…… Continue reading Whitewashing the History is a Path to Self Destruction
“Gender Resource Fair” For Students
Did you ever look at historical events & got puzzled at how anyone can be so blind/stupid to believe/follow/ participate in anything like that? Such easy clear choice. How could they? Easy?

How Dutch Farmers Inspired Me
There’s a great wisdom in saying to fear only HaShem. More often than not this simple phrase provides insights into situation. It’s especially useful for my personal growth. Often with time things change. this happened to our community too. Stories of courage, raw feelings, triumphs and mistakes became just stories… became past. It’s still shocking…… Continue reading How Dutch Farmers Inspired Me

Should You Be Worried About the WEF?
We are at the time when WEF cannot be ignored any longer. WEF shouldn’t be an obsession, yet it’s important to know, understand and try to address the pressing matter.

Celebrating the Terror
Understand the situation. Look at the photo. This is the reaction to the terrorist attack. Did you know about it? Did your news outlets tell you? Or did they decide to ignore it? This is the face of the enemy. Watch videos. Understand the situation. These are the “peace partners”. Your MSM are not going…… Continue reading Celebrating the Terror
Wars Are Ugly
In our crazy world, before posting anything I have to start with stating the obvious – wars are ugly, and nobody wants KGB. It saddens my heart that need to state it. Even people who know me in real life are demanding “pledge of allegiance”, which isn’t normal or productive way towards peace. That obvious…… Continue reading Wars Are Ugly
Do Not Covet
This world was created and keeps on being sustained by the Will of G-d. He created people in His image. The soul is breezed in us – this makes us different from everything else.

Positive Impact Action is The Key
Let me start by saying that I’m Jewish, so a few references might be hard to understand. However I strongly feel that it’s not of a principal importance to comment here. Attacking Judeo-Christian values is going on for years. Please understand the depth of the problem, as I see it. The problem is advance of…… Continue reading Positive Impact Action is The Key
26 Years Old Man Serving Time in Female Juvenile Facility.
It’s hard to find the right words to express my feelings. Yet let me try to organise my thoughts. First it was disbelief. Headline of the article must be wrong. Nothing makes sense. Maybe it’s a parody? Quick check robs me of this hope.  Next thought is confusion. Two years in juvenile facilities. Maybe circumstances…… Continue reading 26 Years Old Man Serving Time in Female Juvenile Facility.
Happy Chanukah Everyone
It’s time for us to remember our history and try to learn from it. A few weeks ago we were reading about Yakov’s ladder and discussed that life is a movement.

Unity is Not Uniformity
Life isn’t s marathon or a competition. Yet there is pressure in everything, including biological clock. Constant drive towards ruining families is glorified on all levels. It starts with not keeping in touch with grandparents and goes on to painting children as burden. Nowadays the “in” style of parenting is that of being a friend. Children…… Continue reading Unity is Not Uniformity

Imagine
There is a famous song by John Lennon called Imagine. It suppose to be about humanity and peace, but for me it is a horrific confronting reality of people losing their hope. It’s my own fault, for thinking about the words of songs. So much music is lost for me, but so much more discovered……… Continue reading Imagine

Do Not do Unto Others as You Would That They Should do Unto You.

Remember the History
Just in case you missed the news… here’s the article: NSW limits residents to six beers per day My personal alcohol consumption is way under that limit, but “glad” that Big Brother is watching.

Opinions or Facts?
Opinion. What a word. Opinion. In the world of my opinion and my truth, are facts not important any longer? If you ever thought this would be impossible, wake up. We are going to discuss how the decision would be made. It’s always “interesting” discussion. The confronting reality is that it’s more than just one…… Continue reading Opinions or Facts?
It’s For Your Own Good
My thoughts after reading this article Read carefully. Realize the impact. Will people be allowed to vote based on vaccine passport? Because otherwise people can get their opinion listened to. Should we add a few more items to the list? How about we add weight to votes based on skin colour? Gender? Religion? Endless possibilities,…… Continue reading It’s For Your Own Good
We Write the Script of Our Lives
Mark Twain famously said “each person is like a book and each year is a new chapter”. It’s a wonderful way to express very deep idea, but my feelings towards my life is more like a movie script.

Equal Rights for Refugees
She is a successful and good looking professional woman. Her field of expertise is law. One would expect her to stand strong against inequality. After all, same laws should apply to everyone and people are innocent until proven guilty, right? Read the article, look at her and ask yourself – would you pick her as…… Continue reading Equal Rights for Refugees
The Jewish experience ascending the Temple Mount
My thoughts after reading an article in the Jerusalem Post. It’s a great improvement, yet it’s not a true freedom to pray in the holiest place for every Jewish person. We have a long way to go before we can say it’s truly prayer without harassment. Furthermore, there are a few claims, which are not supported…… Continue reading The Jewish experience ascending the Temple Mount
The German Experiment That Placed Foster Children with Pedophiles

Would be much better if people got together to plant trees, but…
I was told off for the comment I made in a Facebook group. It was a fiery discussion. So I thought, maybe will make it to a blog? I support peaceful demonstration. We need real targets and transparency. Each life matters, and quality of life too. Depression, suicide, longer “elective surgeries” lists, poverty – all…… Continue reading Would be much better if people got together to plant trees, but…
UN sponsoring boycott of Israel
My thoughts after reading an article in Hayom There are times in human history when people would get together for different reasons. Throughout the history unions, treaties, partnership, alliances and other bodies were formed. Typically these organisations have one purpose. Let’s be honest, it’s generally starting as a positive response to some particular event, majority…… Continue reading UN sponsoring boycott of Israel
Big Tech attacks Art
Musings on article about Israeli artist Alex Levin Growing up in socialist country was complicated – on one hand the only religion allowed was worshipping the government and on the other hand we all had our nationality (more accurate is division on Jews and the rest of people based on the place of birth) written…… Continue reading Big Tech attacks Art
Media Bias
It’s as important as ever to understand the power of big tech. NEVER give up your rights.

For years we are living in the world…… Continue reading Media Bias
Socialism or Antisemitism
Musings after reading an article https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/finance-codeword-for-jewish interesting analysis, especially because i don’t support Elizabeth Warren. The idea of wealth redistribution is socialism & I know first hand how horribly the socialist system works. As they say, if you are not a socialist in your younger years – you have no heart, if you are still a…… Continue reading Socialism or Antisemitism
Facebook’s “Standards”
Here we are again – this does not violate community standards. They understand that it might be offensive. Really? Let me think for a second, in which way it’s not offensive? Murdering Jews is not going against their standards? Or portraying Arabs as bloodthirsty murderers? Or they think that they celebrate murder? Make no mistake,…… Continue reading Facebook’s “Standards”
